Graham Mottram Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 I really shouldn't have joined this forum. My day is blitzed. I lived behind the M&W/Asda site from 1955 and used to play on the fields before M&W built on them, probably late 1950s. If my urban legend is correct, The Full Monty was filmed in Asda at Orgreave, which was "replaced" by the Handsworth Road store. Since TFM was released in 1997, does that mean the store opened in Handsworth around then ? My parents died in 1988 and I think that M&W were still in place then.
